It's Mind Change Monday!

I've received many requests for a new presentation of The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery. So, here they are! As I write my next book, tentatively titled Self-Brain Surgery: How to Rewire Your Brain, Reorder Your Mind, and Radically Transform Your Life, these may change or reorder a little as I determine the best way to work them into a format that will fit nicely into book form. But here they are, which is a perfect way to start Mind Change March! These ten principles will help you become healthier, feel better, and be happier in your life.

The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery (Note: These have been modestly revised as my new book is taking shape; here is the list as it will appear in the book, although in this episode they are slightly different):

—I must relentlessly refuse to participate in my own demise. 

—I must believe that feelings are not facts, they are chemical events in my brain. 

—I must believe that most of my automatic thoughts are untrue. 

—I must believe that my brain is designed to heal. 

—I must love tomorrow more than I hate how I feel right now. 

—I must stop making an operation out of everything. 

—I must not perpetuate generational thought or behavioral issues in my family, or start any new ones. 

—I must love my brain and live in such a way as to improve it. 

—I must believe that I’m getting better at what I’m doing. 

—I must understand that thoughts become things. 

 
Scripture: Romans 12:1-2, II Corinthians 10:5, Philippians 4:6-8, Ephesians 4, II Peter 1:3
